bring media literacy back pls

Someone (an american) with full access to modern internet just asked me who oscar wilde was 🙂
i'm not usually bothered by people not knowing stuff, i understand not everyone has the chance to learn about certain stuff but come on, this person is on twitter, they spend like 10+ hrs online everyday, are you seriously telling me they have NEVER not once in their life heard/seen a reference to Oscar Wilde?! THE OSCAR WILDE?! like i understand if they haven't read the books, right?... sort of. but the name doesn't ring a bell?! not even just a little?
anyway. that's crazy.

Also he died in 1900 more than 100 years ago. Why should anyone know him? A kid dies everyday and they forget that person within a month.
